I have 2 punctured bites on the top of my arm and I can t sleep. No matter what I try. Also the bite hurts when I touch it. I feel like fainting but I don t. I popped it. Do you know what spider or bug bit me. And are the poisonous or toxic. Let me know right away. Oh by the way I am a kid so I can t pay. Also this is serious my mom won t wake up and see if its a bad bite. I already tried.
Hi. As per your case history you are having insect bite dermatitis. My treatment advice is - 1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition. 2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it. 3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days. 4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks. Dr. Harshit bhachech. MBBS, DDVL.
